How Are Trump's Tariffs Impacting Commodities

Are commodities giving us a clearer read on the economy than the stock market?
 
In this episode of the MoneyShow MoneyMasters Podcast, Darrell Fletcher — Managing Director of Commodities at Bannockburn Capital Markets — shares what investors aren’t seeing beneath the surface of energy, metals, and macro markets.
 
Darrell breaks down why volatility is unfolding differently across crude oil, copper, and gold…how tariffs are distorting global pricing…and why U.S. shale producers are walking a tightrope around the $55–$60 oil price band. He also explains the surprising dynamics behind natural gas and LNG, base metal pricing discrepancies, and what muted price moves are really telling us about investor confidence.
 
If you’re watching the economy, commodities may be the sharper lens — and this episode gives you a front-row seat.

The Hidden Forces Moving Oil and Gas Prices

Are energy market conditions telling a different story than the headlines?
 
In this episode of the MoneyShow MoneyMasters Podcast, energy economist Anas Alhajji cuts through the noise to explain what’s really driving oil, gas, and energy markets — and what most investors are missing.
 
You’ll hear why oil pricing doesn’t match supply-and-demand fundamentals, how tariffs and political shifts are reshaping the LNG sector, why the old "Drill, Baby, Drill" model is outdated, and what myths persist behind the EV revolution. Plus, Anas breaks down the real drivers of natural gas volatility…and what China’s energy strategy signals about future global risks.
 
If you invest in oil, LNG, or renewables — or just care where energy prices are headed — this is a must-listen.
